Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)'s season looks done for good, as they find themselves stranded at the bottom of the table with just one win following their 1-run loss against arch-rivals, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) where they started off the 223 run chase well but once again, failed to capitalize the start.

In the post-match interview, RCB captain, Faf du Plessis looked unhappy over Virat Kohli's controversial wicket that left him livid.


Du Plessis on Kohli's controversial dismissal

"It's crazy. Rules are rules, Virat and myself in that space thought the ball was higher than his waist. I guess they measured from the popping crease, you always find one team happy and the other not so with such decisions. That's how the game goes at times," said Faf du Plessis.

Talking about the crucial partnership between Will Jacks and Rajat Patidar and how they faltered after their wickets, du Plessis admitted that they panicked because of their situation in the tournament.

"The partnership was magnificent, but when you don't win too many games, some sort of panic sets in. The Narine over was game-changing."

Looking at some positives from the game, he asserted how they bowled and fielded well for keeping KKR on par score which was chasable.


Du Plessis proud of his RCB team

"I am actually proud of the boys tonight. The way we bowled and fielded, we did give away a couple of big overs towards the end, but I thought we kept them down to a par score. We thought we'll go hard in the batting powerplay, and find those boundaries at the start of the innings. 10/10 from an effort perspective, the way we put up the effort in the ground."

Thanking the fans for their support, the Proteas legend said that they'd keep going and put all their efforts to make their fans happy.
